[QUOTE="TBItoy, post: 310912, member: 1384"] My 32' low deck tag trailer with 2 7000lb rated axles only weighs 4100 lbs (according to the title). So I'm within the rating to haul 9900 lbs on it, and still be legal in pretty much any state with just a regular "class D" license. I've pulled my Dad's dual tandem 20,000lb rated gooseneck flat deck trailer (which weighs 7200 lbs empty) with 2 rigs on it. I MUCH prefer the lighter single tired trailer, and I get ~3 mpg better fuel mileage. Towing 3000 less lbs and getting the rigs down out of the wind helps a LOT. You might look into picking up a smaller "rig hauling" trailer specifically for 4wheelin trips. Get better fuel mileage on long trips, pull less weight, etc. Besides, you can never have too many trailers thumb.gif [/QUOTE]
